Tectonic evolution of the Andean Fold and thrust belt of the southern Neuquén Basin, Argentina
(Geological Society of London Publications, 2005-12)
The Andean Fold and Thrust belt between 36° and 39°S can be divided in two sectors. The Eastern Sector corresponds to the Agrio Fold and Thrust Belt (FTB) characterized by a major exhumation during the Late Cretaceous, and ...
Evidence of Quaternary tectonics along Río Grande valley, southern Malargüe fold and thrust belt, Mendoza, Argentina
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2019-12)
The Malargüe fold and thrust belt is developed in the Argentinian Andes between 34° and 37° S, through the tectonic inversion of Upper Triassic and Lower Jurassic depocenters of the Neuquén Basin, with an uplift history ...
Major Miocene exhumation by fault-propagation folding within a metamorphosed, early Paleozoic thrust belt: Northwestern Argentina
(American Geophysical Union, 2012-08)
The central Andean retroarc thrust belt is characterized by a southward transition at ∼22°S in structural style (thin-skinned in Bolivia, thick-skinned in Argentina) and apparent magnitude of Cenozoic shortening (>100 km ...
Faulting and erosion in the Argentine Precordillera during changes in subduction regime: Reconciling bedrock cooling and detrital records
(Elsevier Science, 2015-12)
The Argentine Precordillera is an archetypal retroarc fold-and-thrust belt that records tectonics associated with changing subduction regimes. The interactions between exhumation and faulting in the Precordillera were ...
Closure type effects on the structural pattern of an inverted extensional basin of variable width: Results from analogue models
(Elsevier Ltd, 2018-11)
In order to further understand the controls on the structural configuration of inverted basins, previous research has vastly explored the role of rift-stage stress field variations on the resulting structure produced by ...
The Transitional Zone Between the Southern Central and Northern Patagonian Andes (36–39°S)
(Springer, 2015)
The transition zone from the Southern Central to the North PatagonianAndes is characterized by a low topography and low shortenings. During its evolution,an extensional event in late Oligocene times affected the western ...
The central Fuegian fold and thrust belt in Tierra del Fuego: Strike‐slip tectonics superimposed onto compressional deformation
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2020-02-20)
The boundary between South America and Scotia plates was established during Neogene times when a wrench tectonic regime was developed along the central area of Tierra del Fuego. This boundary includes the Magallanes–Fagnano ...
Evolution of the Chos Malal and Agrio fold and thrust belts, Andes of Neuquén: insights from structural analysis and apatite fission track dating
(Elsevier, 2015-10)
The Chos Malal and Agrio fold and thrust belts are located in the western part of the Neuquén basin, an Andean retroarc basin of central-western Argentina. Both belts show evidence of tectonic inversion at the western part ...
Structure and evolution of volcanic plumbing systems in fold-and-thrust belts: A case study of the Cerro Negro de Tricao Malal, Neuquén Province, Argentina
(Geological Society of America, 2015-09)
Magma ascent and emplacement in compressional tectonic settings remain poorly understood. Geophysical studies show that volcanic plumbing systems in compressional environments are vertically partitioned into a deep level ...
